John Higby told me to “Any type of acrylic should work okay but I personally recommend GOLDEN LIQUID ACRYLICS. And I use airbrush Golden paints too. Also a dental tool at the pharmacy works great for detailing or a toothpick.”

GOLDEN LQUID ACRYLICS PAINT, since your yoyo is obviously clear you can draw it first then put it under the cap or were you want the design then trace. im not sure were to get an air brush but im sure you could spray paint.
